Not the little girl in the furniture shop (7)
I believe the answer is:
tallboy
'girl in the furniture shop' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'not the little' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'not' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is found within the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
'little' could be 'l' (abbreviation for little) and 'l' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tallboy that I've seen before include "Chest of drawers mounted on legs for lofty youth" , "Item of furniture" , "Piece of furniture made by lofty youth" , "Chest of drawers for lofty lad" , "Chest of drawers in two sections" .)
